Arrange the camera cable so that
people and pets are not likely to trip
over or accidentally pull on it as they
move around or walk through the area.
When the camera is not in use, you
may need to disconnect the cable
from the console to keep it out of the
reach of children and pets. Do not
allow children to play with the camera
cable or wrap the cable around
themselves.
Do not touch the camera cable
terminals or camera lens with your
fingers or allow metal parts to touch
them. Doing so may damage the
